If he's able to weave without causing any accidents, clearly he has SOME skill over the old lady who won't merge even when there's 20 car lengths open

You are asuming that after the initial contact with a differential of 40 kph that one of the vehicles doesn't hit a concrete barrier at 110kph and the other traffic on the other side head on going 150 kph.
Also, ask Paul Walker how much a professional driver and a great car keep you safe at high speeds.
